Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Situational risk refers to potential dangers that arise directly from the specific circumstances or activities in which an individual is engaged. In this case, Dr. Brady's decision to drink heavily to blend in with the pub's patrons introduces risks (such as conflict, violence, or hostility) that are directly related to the situation she has placed herself in for her research.
